Happy Valentine's Day - TSOT640

Hello everyone. It’s time for a new sketch challenge over at Try a Sketch On Tuesdays. 

 

I used the cover die from C&9 to add the stitch pattern to the card base. The Heart 3D embossing folder is used for the center circle to add some subtle texture. Heart die is from Pink and Main. Decided to add a couple of puzzle pieces to represent a couple (die form IO) and the sentiment stamp is an old one from Papertrey, Ink.  I've had the red plaid ribbon in my stash forever and really like how it finished off this card. 

Here is the sketch for you to use as inspiration.

Just a note

Hello. Playing in the Freshly Made Sketch #618 challenge on this very cold January day. 

The leaf sprig die is from Gummianpan, and I highlighted the leaves a little bit with a G24 Copic Marker. I used microdots to adhere it to the linen card base. The "just a note" die was cut three times, stacked, and glued onto a velum outline. 

The little dragonfly is from Impression Obsession. I added three tiny fairy drops from Memory Box to balance the card out. 

Stay warm and safe out there! Thanks for stopping by.

Hi there

Hello. Playing in the sketch challenge over at TGIF. 

Stencil is from Taylored Expressions. I used a white and black gel pen to add highlights to the flowers. Sentiment is from Technique Tuesday and the small dragonfly is from IO. 

I used a mini slimline nested die to create the tag.  Thanks for stopping by.

Just Because

Hello. Playing in this weeks Freshly Made Sketch #414. Decided not to make a Holiday card. I mailed out all of mine yesterday, so I'm pretty much done with that. =)

Flower background stamp is from Impression Obsession. I stamped it in versamark onto a piece of watercolor paper, then heat embossed with Ranger White detail embossing powder. I used worn lipstick and scattered straw to create the colored background. I smooched both of them onto my glass mat, spritzed with water and dropped the stamped panel into it.

Added the Fabrika Decoru drops in jasmine to the flower centers. Just because vertical sentiment is from Savvy Stamps. Black strip was glued onto the left side - and this is a top folding card.

Thanks for stopping by!

CAS Watercolor background

Hello. Playing in the Just Us Girls watercolor background challenge today.

I stamped the background stamp (Impression Obsession) onto watercolor paper and then heat embossed with white embossing powder. Using Hero Arts deep ocean liquid water color, I added drops onto it by using a brush. I spritz the wc paper thoroughly so that when I added the color, it spread and ran.

Thank you dies are from The Ton.

Have a great day and thanks for stopping by.

Just saying hello

Hi there. Playing in this weeks Freshly Made Sketch challenge.

Ombre thanks

Hi everyone. I got a chance to play around a bit today with new stamps from Pretty Pink Posh. I paired it with the ombre challenge going on over at Addicted to CAS.

The colors of my cardstock appear to be off in the photo for some strange reason.

I used me new Arteza watercolor markers and did the smooch technique to create some cool water color effects on Bristol paper. Used the coordinating dies from PPP and cut them out.

I blended some wilted violet onto a piece of cardstock and then cut out the "thanks."  Stitched frame die from My Favorite Things.  Fabrika Decoru enamel used to create the dots.

Thanks for stopping by.

Photo inspiration

Hi all. It's photo inspiration time over at The House That Stamps Built. Here is the photo.

I used pumpkin stamp from Repeat Impressions and colored it with Copic's.

Fussy cut them out so that I could add them onto the card base that I created using distress inks and the round blending tool.

I did splatter it a bit with water then added some shimmer spritz. 

Cats are a die from Impression Obsession and the branches are from Hero Arts My Hero kit from last month. I uused the wreath die and cut it down to form the branches.

So what are you waiting for?!

Color Challenge

Hi everyone. It's time for a color challenge over at The House That Stamps Built.  Here is the palette to work from.

I have to admit that I sometimes have trouble with color challenges and struggle to make it work. I'm really not sure if I personally like what I came up with for this one or not. But it is what it is.....

I used the new flower power separates to create the back grounds on this. For the pink one, I used Versamark and then heat embossed with clear embossing powder. Added some white liquid pearls to the center of the big flower.

The white one is done using Fresh Ink in pink lemonade and black. Yellow self adhesive pearls are added for the centers of the flowers.

Sentiment is from unmounted plate 8600 which you can find here.

Grid die is from Impression Obsession and I tied that white satin bow with the Bow Easy.



So what are you waiting for?! Why not play along with us and start stamping up a card now. We can’t wait to see your creations!
